Welcome to the Forum Archive!

Years of conversation fill a ton of digital pages, and we've kept all of it accessible to browse or copy over. Whether you're looking for reveal articles for older champions, or the first time that Rammus rolled into an "OK" thread, or anything in between, you can find it here. When you're finished, check out the boards to join in the latest League of Legends discussions.

And how do you know they aren't already working on it?
Remember Pool Party Ziggs and Astronautilus? They hit us out of the blue.
Yes, they were suggested much later than DM Swain, but, maybe he's getting the PF treatment. They added stuff to him and now they just keep adding and adding...

They have given no indication as to what they plan to do, they have refused to say anything in the thread for months. If they were making it, they're say something, or like, drop some SERIOUS HINTS like they did with ALL THE OTHER THREADS.

Secondly:

They have since made pool party Ziggs and Astronautilus.

Two skin ideas that came out AFTER Dragon Master Swain. Looooooong after.

1) We just made a great Swain skin - one as part of our "give some of our underserved champions an awesome skin" initiative. Swain, specifically, gets benefit out of a good lore skin and something not Legendary first (I think at least at the time, Dragon Master would have been).

2) Ziggs and Nautilus hadn't gotten skins yet, so those ideas line up with them getting a new skin.

3) Dragonmaster is pretty cool, but there's other low-played characters that need skins first. While I can't make promises for the skins team, it's something we'll definitely look at when Swain gets another skin.

Development is about prioritization, and while this skin might seem most important to you, it's not most important to League. There's especially a slew of characters who need skins badly and haven't gotten one in a long time, or ever. I'd imagine Swain will get a new skin again, but not right away.

Asking a question about it is a good way to have a discussion. I get that you don't understand the forces in play (as evident by your assumptions of why we're not making it) but acting victimized/marginalized when it's a simple misunderstanding is a bit much :P

-Not to sound harsh, but has Riot had any salvaging of its' lore department?

And for example, Trundle needs some base art done for a new skin as well. So many moving parts! You can't give me one counter example (especially when you don't know the details) and say "well, this entirely thing is a lie!" :P
